Hi 1tracy,

go to Start then All Programs, Vaio Recovery Tool and click on Vaio Recovery utility.

Once the Vaio Recovery utility has loaded, click the options button and select Recovery Specific Applications that were pre-installed, click OK, then Yes and Yes again.

You should see Vaio media listed, select and click install..

Hi 1tracy,

have you installed or uninstalled anything recently.?

If so have you tried a system restore to a point before you started receiving the error message.?

HERE is a guide should you need it..
